University Mall is Partnering with Prevent Child Abuse Vermont
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month.
University Mall is partnering with Prevent Child Abuse Vermont to raise awareness about child abuse and to help with their mission.
During the month of April there will be a pinwheel garden in Center Court to raise awareness of National Child Abuse Prevention Month and several of our stores will offer visitors a pinwheel for a $1.00 donation to Prevent Child Abuse Vermont.
In addition, we urge you to visit Prevent Child Abuse Vermont’s website to learn more about their mission and community outreach.About Prevent Child Abuse Vermont
